Project Abstract

Abstract
Climate change is a pressing environmental issue that has significant impacts on various ecosystems and species worldwide. Migratory birds are particularly vulnerable to these changes due to their reliance on specific environmental conditions during different stages of their annual cycle. This research project aims to investigate the impact of climate change on the behavior and distribution of a species of migratory birds, with a focus on understanding how changing environmental conditions affect their migration patterns, breeding success, and overall population dynamics.
